Have any of you found a way to access the sofit from below without bending the hell out of the aluminum? I am not sure in what order the sofit and siding get installed? I didnt see any "trim" covers or pcs that look accessible to remove. Thanks!

Vinyl siding
aluminum sofit
corner pc is vinyl

I'd be afraid of that, too. If it were mine and it was important that I got up there, I'd call a siding guy and try to get someone out to show me how to do it for maybe $100 vs. risk damaging materials and it costing more in the long run.
 
Google " remove soffit panels." There are a bunch of videos that show how. I also think there is a special tool to assist.
